yester-today

i didn't write anything yesterday or today. too bad. well i guess this counts as today's post. so yesterday. i bailed on yesterday. maybe the government will provide me some bail-out money? i could use it.

i began to write yesterday's blog about modern art. and i knew it would very quickly become unruly, so i gave up. it's saved somewhere in the depths of blogger, but where i do not know. modern art... whew! that would have been horrendous, especially since all i really wanted to talk about was graffiti. who knew?

today was overcome by errands and apartment hunting and general mayhem. i had to make a quick dash to pearl paint to pick but some binding screws - my new form of construction for my portfolio. they failed to have them. though they suggested the paper store across the street. they did in fact have them. in a set of 20. way more then i'd EVER need. yay! then onto bed bath and beyond for a gift certificate for my cousin's wedding (another topic for another day). i love and hate bb&b. i go there and want everything and can buy nothing. it breaks my heart every time. it's like going into the container store and coming out with ONE hanger. not fair. and he gets to go a spend it! argh! this whole trek was pretty exhausting - it's 90 here today - so i popped into jewel and got me my dp before getting some chipotle. as i informed my boyfriend chipotle and argo tea are the only indulgences that i've been allowing myself. and an occasional pizza, which is being replaced by a selection of frozen ones.

after gorging on chipotle, i rushed home to drop off my purchases before heading off to an apartment visit. nathan, 25, gay, is the nicest most relaxed roommate i have ever had the chance to live with. i was, unfortunately, very talkative. and when i'm talkative, i get rambley. i pratically told him my life story. oh god... and the apartment. it was amazing! hardwood floors, decent kitchen, bathroom, living room. the bedroom was smallish but i'm already living in smallish so it can't get worse. and the closet is in the room! it was perfect. i'm crossing my fingers about that one. but i have another to see on thursday and he's going to tell me on friday. we'll see!!!

then nothing. i ate the rest of my chipotle. watched some mid-day HSN. did some web-surfing. fixed up my original portfolio with the new screws. stuff.

i ended the day with a decent romantic comedy, america's sweethearts. i love john cusack. what woman doesn't?!? and a chat with my BFF on the phone.

just did some cleaning (washed my dishes!). and now off to bed with a new book, kurt vonnegut's breakfast of champions. which i'm sure i'll write about later.
